dvd+rw-tools

dvd+rw-tools makes it possible to burn DVD images
created by "dvdauthor" or "mkisofs" to DVD+R,
DVD+RW, DVD-R, and DVD-RW disks, replacing
"cdrecord-proDVD" in many cases. The package
contains "growisofs" to burn DVD images or create a
data DVD on the fly, "dvd+rw-format" to format a
DVD+RW, "dvd+rw-mediainfo" to give details about
DVD disks, and some programs to control the write
speed and obtain information from DVD-RAM.

This site is hard to read. Where is the install info for this software? I have used ark to extract files into a folder. I don't see an install.txt sheet which accompanies other tar.gz programs. The index.html file just goes into a diatribe of who know what. Anyway I tried to run make and it started up. I got this error:
